Adds a read-only Activity resource to the admin panel (Advanced group) that lists every activity log across panels, with event/actor/subject/date-range filters and a properties modal. The query is deliberately unscoped and ignores activity.hide_admin_activity, since this is the audit view for admins.

Access is gated on a new view activityLog special permission (seeIps alone doesn't grant it); the permission shows up in the role form automatically via Role::getPermissionList() and root admin bypasses as usual.

In `@app/Filament/Admin/Resources/Activities/ActivityResource.php`:
- Line 131: Update the query returned by the ActivityResource method containing
the ActivityLog::whereNotIn call to eager-load the apiKey and actor relations
used by getIcon() and actorName(), while preserving the existing subjects eager
loading and disabled-event filtering.
- Line 78: Align ViewAction authorization with the admin activity permission by
updating ActivityResource::canView() or the corresponding
ActivityLogPolicy::view() check, so Auditors granted “view activityLog” can open
the properties modal. Preserve existing authorization for other roles and add a
test covering an Auditor’s ViewAction access.

KeyValue's state cast treats an assoc whose first value is an array as its
own row format, so events like settings:update rendered an empty modal.
Flatten via Arr::dot in mutateRecordDataUsing and stringify null/bool values.
